Thanks for pointing this out. An issue has been created around this ,
The source code of /e/ or LineageOS is Google’s AOSP.
There will be such screens spread across the OS. The /e/ dev team has removed most of such references but there are still screens which will show the Call Google details ,
The best way to handle this is to raise a bug with details so that the team can remove it from the code.

Great. I can see that the bug is record now in Git. So great. Just to point that this issue it might not be so much to about AOSP, cause is in the browser that at the same time is bromite and at the same time is Google web browser.
